Iraqis inspect destruction at the site of a rocket attack in Baghdad's al-Hurriyah neighborhood. Seven people were killed and 23 others were wounded in the attack according to medical and security sources. Early voting in Iraq's parliamentary election was overshadowed by two suicide bombings at polling stations that killed seven soldiers and a mortar attack that left seven civilians dead. The blasts, which also wounded 48 people, including 25 Iraqi troops, occurred as soldiers, prisoners and the sick were casting their ballots in special voting ahead of a March 7 parliamentary ballot.
